Lizzys Tuna Spread Recipes

EASY TUNA SPREAD

Steps:

• Open the cans and pour most of the oil into a separate glass or bowl (you'll add some of the oil later on)
• Put the tuna in your food processor with a few squeezes of lemon juice, parsley and some pepper
• Blend and slowly add some of the oil you saved from the cans. I usually add about half of the oil, but it's up to you to decide on the desired consistency. It's a spread so it shouldn't be too runny, but you don't want it to be dry either
• Optional: I find some brands of canned tuna too salty. If that's the case, I add a few spoons of ricotta to neutralise the salty taste and add some extra creaminess
• This tuna spread will keep about 1 week in your fridge

FABIO'S LAZY TUNA

Steps:

• Preheat an oven to 400 degrees F.
• In a large bowl, add the potatoes, garlic, chili peppers, a pinch of parsley, salt, and black pepper, to taste. Add 3/4 cup of olive oil and mix well. Spread the potato mixture on an ovenproof pan, packing the mixture so it serves as a solid bed for the tuna.
• Spread half of the fennel seeds, lemon rinds, basil and pieces of plum tomato sparingly on top of the potato mixture. Add the tuna slices on top, covering the baking dish. Spread the remainder of the lemon rinds, crushed fennel seeds, and pieces of plum tomatoes on top of the tuna. Generously sprinkle with the bread crumbs, and drizzle the remaining extra-virgin olive oil on top.
• Bake in the oven for approximately 10 minutes.
